Tottenham are to make another check on Gent pair Laurent Depoitre and Moses Simon.

The 26-year-old Depoitre has scored six goals in 14 games for the Belgian league leaders and scored on his international debut for Belgium against Andorra.

Tottenham have watched the 6ft 3ins centre forward several times already this season and his teammate Simon but will send a scout again on Wednesday to watch Gent in action against Valencia in the Champions League.

Southampton, Manchester United and City have also sent scouts to watch the game, with Valencia trio Shokdran Mustafi, Jose Luis Gaya and Andre Gomes among those being monitored.

Simon, 20, is a Nigeria international who can play across the front line and was a target for Tottenham and Liverpool as a teenager but opted to join Ajax instead.
